The structures located at the southeastern corner of Mound E consists of a complex of massive baked brick/mud brick walls and baked brick drain complex. This series of structures is set between the southeastern corner of the mud brick city wall of M… >

The overall gateway structure, including the street and side drains is bonded at either edge (east and west) by massive mud brick bastions, representing the Mound E and Mound ET perimeter walls. The area between these two mud brick perimeter walls w… >

Photograph of gateway excavations, 1995. A series of side rooms were also excavated along the eastem edge of the gateway in 1995. The latest phase of construction also included a large east-west oriented doorway leading through the eastem edge of… >

The paleotopography represents the pre-occupation topography as it may have existed about 5000 years ago. There may be some areas in the paleotopographic model that may not represent the actual paleotopography, but rather subsequent anthropogenic in… >

Using maps and cross-sections of the cultural deposits from HARP, surfaces were generated to represent the interfaces of cultural layers in the mounds at Harappa. This represents the growth of the city of ancient Harappa vertically and through time… >

Period 2 deposits represent a transition phase between pre urban and urban phases and exist primarily beneath Mound E. >

Period 3A deposits, representing an early urban phase, exist beneath Mounds E and also show expansion onto the area beneath Mound AB. Growth in the city of Harappa is shown to be both lateral and vertical. >

Period 3B and 3C deposits essentially cover the entire modeled area and represent the greatest extent of the ancient urban center. J. M. Kenoyer has developed a model describing some of the processes that contribute to the urban growth at Harappa… >

Periods 4 and 5, representing a modification of cultural styles, exist at the tops of Mounds AB and E. >
